28A2432-0A2

Overview

The Laird-Signal Integrity Products 28A2432-0A2 is a hinged, snap-on ferrite core designed for free-hanging cable applications. It provides electromagnetic interference suppression with an impedance of 160 Ohms at 100 MHz. The component features a round shape and utilizes material grade 28. Physical dimensions include an inner diameter of 0.323 inches (8.20 mm), an outer width of 0.909 inches (23.10 mm), an outer height of 0.756 inches (19.20 mm), and a length of 0.783 inches (19.90 mm).

Feature Summary

• Hinged snap-on design allows for easy installation onto existing cables without disconnection.
• Free-hanging configuration suitable for flexible cable management.
• Round geometry accommodates standard cylindrical wire harnesses.

Applications

• Electromagnetic interference filtering on data cables
• Signal integrity improvement in electronic assemblies
• Cable harness noise suppression

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific material grade and impedance characteristics against the official datasheet to ensure compatibility with target frequency ranges. Confirm that the inner diameter matches the cable outer diameter for a secure fit. Check RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications. Ensure the hinged mechanism is intact upon receipt to maintain structural integrity during installation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when non-invasive EMI suppression is required for cables that cannot be disconnected. The snap-on design facilitates rapid assembly and retrofitting. Consider the physical size constraints of the enclosure to accommodate the free-hanging core. Evaluate the impedance profile at the specific noise frequencies present in the application to ensure effective attenuation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the cable ferrite core category from Laird-Signal Integrity Products. It is distinct from surface-mount chip beads like the MI series or other clamp-on cores such as the 28A2025-0A2. The hinged design differentiates it from split-core variants that require tools for opening.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify mechanical fit and electrical performance before considering alternative manufacturers.
